Chain Sling Type Naming Code Basic chain sling configurations are often described using a code. Naming conventions have many exceptions and vary among manufacturers. First Letter It often designates the number of legs or branches: S = Single leg sling with one branch D = Double leg sling with two branches T = Triple leg with three branches Q = Quadruple leg sling with four        branches Second Letter It normally designates the fitting at the top of the chain sling: O = Oblong shaped master link S = Sling hook G = Grab hook B = Basket with oblong master sling Third Letter or group of letters It designates the fitting at the bottom of each branch: S = Sling hook G= Grab hook LK = Sliding choker BK = Self locking F = Foundry hook If A precedes the group of letters, then a device to adjust the length has been added. Adjusters can be either of two styles, Type A or Type B. Both are pictured here. Example: ADOS describes an Adjustable, Double Leg Chain Sling with Oblong master link on top and a Sling hook at the bottom of each leg or branch.
